Migrant Workers Caught in Crossfire of Iran's Gulf Strikes
Exclusive insight into how the escalating conflict between Iran and the U.S. has impacted migrant workers across the Gulf region, as our reporter uncovers the human toll of the strikes.
Migrant workers, who make up a significant portion of the workforce in Gulf countries, have found themselves caught in the crossfire of the escalating conflict between Iran and the United States. Since the U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran began, the Islamic Republic has launched hundreds of missiles and drones in retaliation, targeting American military bases and interests across the Gulf region.
While Iranian officials maintain that these strikes are aimed at military and not civilian targets, the reality on the ground tells a different story. Our reporter, Vivian Nereim, spoke with Katrin Bennhold to uncover the human impact of these attacks on the migrant worker population, who often occupy the most vulnerable positions in Gulf societies.
